Lesson 1 Cells and Life (continued) Basic Cell Substances 45 Organize information about macromolecules Macromolecules have important roles in how a cell functions cannot function without water form by joining many smaller molecules together 45 Complete the statement about basic cell substances The main material inside cells is water, which makes up more than 75 percent of the cell s volume Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc 45 Draw a water molecule in the space below Color the oxygen red and the hydrogen blue, and label the positive and negative ends In the space below your drawing, describe the structure of the water molecule, and explain: 1 how that structure helps dissolve materials; 2 why water s ability to dissolve materials is important to the function of a cell Drawings should show a large central red oxygen atom with two smaller blue hydrogen atoms attached to it Students should indicate that the oxygen end is negative (-) and the hydrogen end is positive (+) The water molecule has a positive end and a negative end This structure makes substances dissolve easily because the positive ends of the water molecules can attract the negative parts of other substances and the positive ends can attract negative parts Materials can only enter into and exit from cells when dissolved in water Cell Structure and Function 13

Explain Sample answer: Yes; cells without chloroplasts also depend on sunlight for their food They use the sugars made by cells with chloroplasts for energy Cell Structure and Function 17
Lesson 3 Moving Cellular Material Predict three things that will be discussed in Lesson 3 Read the headings, and look at the photos and illustrations Write your predictions in your Science Journal Passive Transport 61 61 List 2 functions of membranes 1 boundaries between cells and between organelles 2 control movement of substances into and out of cells Organize information about passive transport Passive Transport Diffusion 62 Definition: Depends on: Example: amount of substance on each side of the membrane the movement of substances through a cell membrane without using the cell s energy Assess information about diffusion Read the statements below If the statement is true, write true on the line I f it is false, rewrite the underlined portion of the statement so that it is true Diffusion is the movement of substances from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration False; higher concentration, lower concentration Oxygen molecules move across a cell membrane until the amount of oxygen is equal on sides of the membrane Diffusion continues until the concentration of a substance is higher inside a cell than outside a cell False; the same on sides of a cell s membrane Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc 18 Cell Structure and Function
Lesson 3 Moving Cellular Material (continued) Osmosis The Diffusion of Water 62 63 Complete the sentence about osmosis Osmosis is a type of passive transport that involves movement of water molecules only through the cell membrane Explain the process of facilitated diffusion Facilitated Diffusion A molecule is too large to pass through a cell membrane Cell uses two types of transport proteins carrier proteins channel proteins Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc Active Transport 64 pass large molecules through membrane by carrying them through Organize information about active transport Definition: the movement of substances through a cell membrane only by using the cell s energy Active Transport can move substances from areas of lower concentration to higher concentration pass large molecules through membrane by forming a pore through the membrane through which the molecule can pass used to bring in nutrients and take waste out Cell Structure and Function 19
Lesson 3 Moving Cellular Material (continued) 64 Compare and contrast facilitated diffusion and active transport by writing or no in each empty box of the chart Description Uses carrier proteins Transports materials across cell membrane Requires cellular energy Able to move materials from an area with lower concentration to an area with higher concentration Facilitated Diffusion no no Active Transport 64 Identify each process as either endocytosis or exocytosis Process endocytosis Description Materials entering cell exocytosis Materials being expelled from cell Cell Size and T ransport 65 Explain how cell size and transport are related Underline the term that correctly completes each sentence As a cell grows, its volume and surface area (increase/ decrease) Volume increases (faster/slower) than surface area Eventually, the cell s membrane would be (too large/too small) to move enough materials into and out of the cell Cells are very small Yet, as living things, they have the ability to grow What keeps cells from growing to much larger sizes than they do? Accept all reasonable responses Sample answer: For transport of materials, a cell s surface area must be much larger than its volume As a cell grows, its volume increases more quickly than its surface area If a cell were to keep growing, its membrane would not be able to transport enough materials for the cell to survive Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc 20 Cell Structure and Function
Lesson 4 Cells and Energy Scan Lesson 4 in your book Think of three questions you have about cells and energy Write those questions in your Science Journal Then try to answer your questions as you read Cellular Respiration 69 Organize information about cellular respiration What it is: a series of chemical reactions Cellular Respiration What it does: converts the energy in food into ATP W here it occurs: 1 cytoplasm 2 mitochondria Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc 69 Cell membrane Glucose (sugar) ATP Chemical reactions Smaller molecules Cytoplasm ATP Summarize the first step in the process of cellular respiration Then label the steps in the diagram on the left breaks glucose smaller molecules First Step of Cellular Respiration occurs in is called glycolysis, a process that into cytoplasm produces some molecules ATP Cell Structure and Function 21

Sample answer: Students should conclude that without photosynthesis, plants and some other organisms cannot make food If these organisms cannot make food, they cannot survive and act as food for other living things that cannot make their own food Cell Structure and Function 23
Review Chapter Wrap-Up Cell Structure and Function Now that you have read the chapter, think about what you have learned Use this checklist to help you study Complete your Foldables Chapter Project Study your Science Notebook on this chapter Study the definitions of vocabulary words Reread the chapter, and review the charts, graphs, and illustrations Review the Understanding Key Concepts at the end of each lesson Look over the Chapter Review at the end of the chapter Reread the chapter Big Idea and the lesson Key Concepts When scientists first began to study cells, they found that plant and animal cells were similar to each other and yet different from each other What are the similarities that you have noticed? What are the differences? Accept all reasonable responses Students should explain that types of cells have the same kinds of organelles, except that plant cells have chloroplasts, central vacuoles, and cell walls They should also explain that the processes inside the cells are similar, except that plant cells can photosynthesize their food Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc Challenge Compare the cell to a factory For example, a factory has a manager, and a cell has a nucleus Use similar analogies to describe the functions of different parts of the cell 24 Cell Structure and Function
